Why This Athlete is Challenging to Guess

This New Zealand all-rounder presents a moderate challenge for Sportiz players, combining solid batting and bowling contributions that characterized their international cricket career. The all-rounder role immediately provides dual-dimensional analysis, while the New Zealand nationality offers specific cricketing context that experienced cricket fans will recognize.

Key identifying factors include the impressive 8680 career runs paired with 407 wickets, demonstrating genuine all-round capabilities. The 39 fifties and 14 centuries indicate consistent batting contributions, while the wicket tally suggests regular bowling duties across Test, ODI, and T20 formats for the Black Caps.

Cricket enthusiasts familiar with 2000s-2010s New Zealand cricket will find this achievable, while casual fans may struggle with the specific statistical combination. The all-rounder classification can lead to confusion with other New Zealand players who contributed in both disciplines during similar periods.

Difficulty Rating: 6/10

Moderate difficulty due to New Zealand nationality narrowing the field significantly, balanced by strong all-round statistics that distinguish from pure batsmen or bowlers.

Why The Clues Matter

The all-rounder role immediately eliminates specialists. The 8680 runs combined with 407 wickets demonstrates balanced contributions rarely achieved. New Zealand nationality significantly narrows the field, while the century and fifty counts help eliminate similar all-rounders with different batting profiles.
